From the beginning to the end of this experience David was extremely present and involved. I never felt that I was lost in the sauce. We communicated sometimes daily trying to navigate through the CMS process which was quite involved. He never gave up even with my frustration.

Jonathan Nirenberg is exactly the kind of lawyer you need when you are facing an employment issue. He is extremely thorough, patient, clear in communicating his understanding of your complaint, respectful, empathetic and kind. Jonathan was the second lawyer I consulted with and the one I chose to work with because of all the reasons I listed above and also because he did not over promise, however, he did over deliver! He got me a monetary settlement that exceeded my expectations, and he did so by being professional and taking a thoughtful, nuanced approach to the opposing team. I really cannot say enough great things about Jonathan and also his team. Everyone I spoke to was super responsive and friendly. It's stressful to go through something like this yet Jonathan and his team made me feel optimistic and reassured that I was doing the right thing. Thank you Jonathan, Andrea and Barbara!
